Stage 1: Definition
1. Feature overview
Building a stub installer offers numerous advantages over our current installation process. It is necessary for us to understand our acquisition funnel and potentially get some early wins on improving download failures.
In addition, to support Windows x64 we would like to have a stub installer that checks if the user is running Windows x64 and then downloads / installs the correct bits. To accomplish this, I propose we use the existing installer, have it check if it already has the files to install, and if it doesn't have it download an archive containing the correct files. To support this, a rewrite of the installer user interface will be necessary.
2. Users & use cases
Enable product (stub installer) downloads over SSL
3. Dependencies
`
4. Requirements
See UX specs here: https://bug651965.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=543348
Non-goals
`
Stage 2: Design
5. Functional specification
`
6. User experience design
Initial mockups can be found in bug 651965.
Most recent mockup: https://bug651965.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=543348
Note that after the user clicks install on step 1, even if they walk away Firefox will eventually be installed. This will likely improve conversion, since the stub installer is considerably smaller than the entire Firefox download (and they may lose interest at the download stage).
Here's a high level view of our previous install process
Stage 3: Planning
7. Implementation plan
`
8. Reviews
Security review
A security review should not be necessary for the installer user interface rewrite though a security review will most assuredly be required for the stub installer (bug 322206).
Privacy review

Localization review
`
Accessibility

Quality Assurance review

Operations review

Stage 4: Development
9. Implementation
These are the bugs we are using the track this work...
- bug 651965 - Installer user interface rewrite
- bug 322206 - Firefox net / stub installer (depends on bug 651965)
- bug 628869 - [Win] update installer elements to read Mozilla Firefox (depends on bug 651965)
Stage 5: Release
